Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of veterinary drugs, and in particular relates to a poultry drinking praziquantel dry suspension and a compound praziquantel effervescent dry suspension. Background Art

[0002] Praziquantel is a broad-spectrum drug against trematodes and tapeworms. Since its introduction, it has been recommended as the drug of choice for the treatment of zoonotic schistosomiasis due to its low toxicity, high efficiency and broad spectrum. The mechanism of action of praziquantel mainly consists of two aspects: direct action on the worm and immune effect of the host. Praziquantel comes into contact with the worm in the host and produces an effect similar to 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), causing the worm to produce spastic paralysis and fall off. It can also affect the permeability of calcium ions in the muscle cells of the worm, leading to an increase in the intracellular calcium ion content, causing the worm to paralyze and fall off; praziquantel has a direct immunomodulatory effect, which can reduce the activity of glutathione-S-transferase in the worm, causing a large amount of active oxygen to accumulate in the body, damaging the antioxidant system of the worm and causing the worm to die. Praziquantel has the characteristics of low solubility and high permeability. Its low solubility affects the absorption of the drug, resulting in low biological solubility and limiting its clinical use.

[0003] Ivermectin belongs to the class of sixteen-membered macrolide compounds and is a semi-synthetic avermectin derivative. Ivermectin can specifically bind to glutamate-gated chloride channels, increase the permeability of cell membranes to chloride ions, cause a large influx of chloride ions into cells, stimulate the body to release γ-aminobutyric acid, and cause nerve or muscle cells to hyperpolarize, paralyzing and killing parasites. Since 1987, ivermectin has been widely used in the treatment of animal and human diseases. It is often used to kill parasites inside and outside animals. It is a new type of broad-spectrum, highly effective, and low-toxic antiparasitic drug. Studies have shown that ivermectin has a strong killing effect on gastrointestinal nematodes, lung nematodes, and external parasites of cattle, sheep, horses, camels, rabbits, pigs, and poultry, and can also prevent heartworms in dogs or cats.

[0004] In recent years, due to the increase in mixed infections of various types of parasites such as nematodes, tapeworms, trematodes and external parasites and the widespread use of antiparasitic drugs in veterinary clinics, many types of parasites have developed resistance to certain specific drugs. Therefore, veterinary clinics urgently need to develop a broad-spectrum anthelmintic, low-resistance and easy-to-use compound preparation. The combined use of anthelmintics is a common method to deal with drug-resistant insects or multiple infections. Reports have shown that the compound preparation prepared by mixing ivermectin and praziquantel has a wider anti-insect spectrum and anthelmintic effect. At the same time, the combined use of ivermectin and praziquantel can produce antagonistic toxic effects, and the acute toxicity of the two drugs will be weakened when used in combination.

[0005] Dry suspension is a new dosage form derived from suspension. It is a solid preparation that mixes an insoluble or poorly soluble main drug with a suspending agent or other water-soluble auxiliary material. Before use, water can be added within a certain range to form a high-quality suspension, so that the particles are dispersed in the liquid medium to form a heterogeneous dispersion system. Dry suspension has some characteristics of suspension, such as being a thermodynamically unstable coarse dispersion system. After being dispersed with water, it should meet the quality requirements of suspension. The particles in the suspension should be evenly dispersed and should not sink quickly. They should not clump after settling and should be quickly redispersed after shaking. Dry suspension can be further divided into dry suspension and suspension granules, which are prepared from auxiliary materials such as suspending agents, wetting agents, and dispersants. Compared with suspension, dry suspension has better stability. After the drug is made into dry suspension, it has beautiful appearance, easy to use and transport, high and uniform dispersion, fast onset of action, high bioavailability, little irritation to the gastrointestinal tract and rapid absorption, which reduces the impact of individual differences on drug metabolism and reduces the occurrence of many adverse reactions. It has the characteristics of solid preparations, such as easy to carry and transport, good stability, etc., and the advantages of liquid preparations, such as fast absorption, fast onset of action, high bioavailability, and easy use. It is suitable for children, the elderly and other patients with swallowing difficulties. In veterinary clinics, it is particularly suitable for mixed drinking in large-scale chicken flocks.

[0006] At present, praziquantel tablets and praziquantel injection are used in veterinary clinics. In the prior art, Chinese patents CN116831999A and CN116942621A disclose a praziquantel tablet of pyrantel pamoate and a praziquantel tablet containing an attractant that can be eaten independently, respectively; Chinese patents CN111803443A and CN101347406A disclose a praziquantel injection and a high-content praziquantel injection, respectively. The above dosage forms are used for mixed feeding or injection. When used in mixed feed, poisoning accidents often occur due to the inability to mix evenly. Injection preparations have high injection technology requirements on the medication personnel, are labor-intensive and time-consuming, and are prone to animal stress and poisoning incidents. Summary of the invention

[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing dosage forms and parasite resistance and mixed parasite infection, the present invention provides a praziquantel dry suspension, develops a new dosage form suitable for poultry to mix and drink, can overcome the shortcomings of praziquantel's poor water solubility and inability to be administered in drinking water, provides a new solution for the treatment of drug-resistant parasitic infection and mixed parasitic infection, and has broad application prospects.
